Tips & Strategies

here is two ways to tame this bub
one: the quick way,
1: heat wave
2: get on fast and good tame
3: find one
4: if found use fire wyvern or flame arrows
two: the trap way,
1: start from step 3 on way one but wait for heat wave to end.
2: find big pile of ashes
3: place a trap. add oil jars for good results
4: wait for next heat wave
5: light the fire bird up!
Watch Nooblet best way to trap a Phoenix and he uses oil jars and a parasajr to find the ashes and traps it.
You can get it to spawn next to your base because of the following: It always respawns at it's last location, so if the heatwave ends while you are following it you will know where it is for the next heatwave. It also chases you when you eat flowers... hint hint
You can look for it with a parasaur when heatwave isn active...it can detect an ash pile...i got lucky and found one after 5min
They eat sulfur after taming. Mine almost starved to death before I figured it out. I couldn't find anything anywhere about feeding them after taming them. Hope this helps!
So can we just wack it with an ascendant touch untill it's tamed?
Found mine in the rocky mountains near red obelisk. I think that's the most common place. Dont try to chase it with a dragon, you'll waste your time. Wait until it despawns and build a trap. These tame are not practical but are flipping awesome! The fact that they are so rare makes it better in my opinion. Dont give up.
Nooblets is the best tamer. He has so many creative ways of taming critters..... he's also hilarious and I also like his British ascent...
Whoo hooo! I'm the first to write a tip on encountering!
It's only found during heat waves on scorched, probably just spawns anytime on modded maps in a few days.
On scorched, be sure you have full ghillie(heat) and a jerboa(super easy tame) to notify you of weather events. Phoenix only comes during heat wave so listen for “high pitch purr” from your jerboa. Search the map and find this awesome bird! Once that’s done just wait and see where it despawns when heat wave is over. You will see a glowing light on the ground. BUILD A PEN AT LEAST 6 WALLS HIGH AND 6 WALLS WIDE AROUND THAT SPOT. Reason is it tends to respawn above the ground since it never lands. Next heat wave, pray your calculations are correct and it’s trapped! After that just use a flame thrower OR fire wyvern to burn the Phoenix for tame. Again, this thing only spawns during heat waves so be efficient!
Find one, remember where it is, then use parasaur to know where to put trap
Best way to tame solo is to trap it and use oil jars to burn it. Tames supper fast and can keep a constant flame on it for max effectiveness. It is almost useless however, and hardly worth the time it takes to find and tame it. Good luck.
If u want to spawn the phoenix by command:
